Terraformation has partnered with Worldview Impact to plant a projected 20,000 native plants in Meghalaya, India, one of the most biodiverse regions of the world. This project will be led by the Khasi people, an Indigenous community who have lived in the region for thousands of years and share a deep knowledge of the native ecosystem.
While the first phase will reintroduce 21 native plant species across 80 hectares, this native restoration model could serve as a proof of concept for the restoration of an additional 40,000 hectares of degraded land in the region.
Terraformation will support Worldview Impact in the planting of 20,000 plants, with plans to expand and scale.
